This quarantine time, we can enjoy making fun recipes with your babies, making the most of it, sharing with the family and enjoying every minute of being with them.
The idea is that your little one acquires a series of learning through experimentation and the discovery of new textures, sensations, which also helps them develop social and cognitive skills. Creating a stimulating environment for the baby where sensations are involved through experiences, where he is given the freedom to explore and discover, will generate a strengthening of cognitive and emotional learning, represented in the structural growth of the brain.
What better way to promote these stimuli, than to allow your little one to be a participant in the creation of their own porridge, where through direct contact with these textures, promote learning and enjoy quality time with their parents.
